Doorbell camera footage caught the moment a huge black bear strolled through a homeowner's porch in Issaquah, Washington.

Filmed on June 24, the black beer is seen just a few feet away from Ray Loyola's front door.

Loyola told Newsflare: "Got an alert from my doorbell camera while still asleep at 5 am. When I woke up, checked the video and was startled to see a black bear appear.

"Totally shocked to see a bear walk through our front porch like that. A little concerning, considering there are many kids in our neighbourhood!

"We have been warned by our homeowners' association/neighbourhood that bears could be present in the area, and to avoid keeping garbage cans out any longer than necessary.

"First time we've seen any bear on camera."

Got an alert from my doorbell camera while still asleep at 5am. When I woke up, checked the video and was startled to see a black bear appear, walking from in between me and my neighbours house, and walking out toward the street!

Never seen bears, though we have been warned by our homeowners association /neighbourhood that bears could be present in the area, and to avoid keeping garbage cans out any longer than necessary. First time we've seen any bear on camera.

totally shocked to see a bear walk through our front porch like that. A little concerning, considering there are many kids in our neighbourhood! Wish we were able to see where else that bear went after it passed by our camera.
